About this work

A shepherd in a dark hat walks along a pale, wet shoreline while a large flock of sheep grazes and drinks from a shallow stream across the sandy dunes. The muted palette of ochre, grey, and soft blue creates a hazy horizon under an overcast sky. This 1903 painting by Giulio Aristide Sartorio is titled The Flock of Sheep of the Sostregoni (On the Pontine Coast).
